Numa Pompilio

Inspired by the great European bourgeois restaurants, NUMA POMPILIO opens its doors in Barrio de Salamanca, calle Velázquez 18, becoming one of the most awaited novelties of the culinary scene in Madrid.

This new restaurant, created by Sandro Silva and Marta Seco, is committed to Italian cuisine, refined with choices that enrich themselves with the Italian nomad spirit.

"With NUMA, we want to bring the less-known Italy to Madrid, with products that are a true legacy and with traditional culinary creations not so oftenseenhere.

However, it's not a purist restaurant… we suggest a menu that has travelled the world. With dishes created by Italians who have gone beyond their borders, who have learnt from external influences for generations", says Silva. "Our restaurant is not only Italian; it is European and international!... It is a space where, apart from making you enjoy the cuisine, we want to surprise you, create different sensations, a global experience."

And this is how they have paid attention to the smallest details in this new project by the creators of El Paraguas, Ten con Ten, Ultramarinos Quintín and Amazónico. An open kitchen and a pasta-making table welcome the guests, who enter the rooms that lead to the main dining area, with large windows that lead to the back garden. Undoubtedly one of the restaurant's gems.

The impeccable décor, romantic and evocative, takes us back in time, with kitchen utensils and items brought directly from Italy, New York and London.

The bust of NUMA POMPILIUS (POMPILIO in Spanish), second king of Rome, is the emblem of the restaurant. It calmly watches over the frantic pace of the kitchen, where they make dishes like Acqua pazza sea bream, Guazzetto seafood with rosemary focaccina, Orecchiona de elefante madurada, Smoked venison with Pecorino Romano cheese and Marsala. The artisan desserts and ice creams, along with the cocktails, are the essential complements of a menu that brings together legacy and innovation.

The winery has a selection of wines that are a true journey to the Italian winemaking world, with more than one hundred and fifty references from the Alpine country. It is completed by an important national and international winery, where we can highlight a wide range of Andalusian fino wines, French champagnes, and references from Portugal, Chile, United States, South Africa and New Zealand.
